In-Depth View: Microsoft Windows 7 RC

by Joe Wilcox

Microsoft made the Windows 7 Release Candidate available to Microsoft Developer Network and TechNet subscribers on April 30, and the Windows 7 RC will be generally available May 5. The near-final build shows many changes, the majority being spit and polish, from the Windows 7 Beta 1 released in early January. The company has been pushing for Windows 7, due for final release later this year, to succeed in all the ways that its last operating system, Vista, did not.
